Class of 2018 Rube Goldberg Project

March 2nd, 2018

Rube Goldberg (1883-1970) was a Pulitzer Prize winning cartoonist best known for his zany invention cartoons. He was born in San Francisco on the 4th of July, 1883 – and graduated from U. Cal Berkeley with a degree in engineering. Every year, students at St. Peter’s School attempt to create a Rube Goldberg Project, in which students build devices to complete a simple task in a minimum of twenty steps in the style of American cartoonist Rube Goldberg.
